Authority means "the power or right to make decisions…". Being a catholic you have the right to make any decision you want when. Yes there's some rules in the catholic religion, but all God wants is your heart and your trust that's it. He doesn’t care if you're circumcised or not. All you have to do is believe and that is what it all comes down to.

Explanation:

Authority in a nutshell is simply the power or right to make and enforce decisions usually within the arm of the law/constitution. being a Christian and a Roman catholic God has given you the free will to make your own choice in life but yet there are some rules in the catholic religion that you are obligated to obey despite your freewill.

God wants your heart because when Jesus Christ came to the world he came for both the Jews and Gentiles, the circumcised and the uncircumcised. all he wants from us as Christians or Gentile is to believe in him and follow his ways
